Breadcrumb Rule Cards: Portable AI context rules
A searchable, portable context manager for AI coding assistants that follows you across devices.
- Problem
- Breadcrumb records everything on your Mac and makes it searchable for AI, but such tools are bound to one OS and their rules/context can't travel. Meanwhile, multi-agent setups suffer when shared state and tools cause conflicts. Users need a lightweight, portable way to turn AI decision context into reusable rule sets.
- Solution
- A local-first CLI/editor plugin that extracts fragmented AI context (e.g., from Breadcrumb logs) into structured rule cards (YAML/Markdown), with versioning, cross-device sync, and team sharing. Core is the rule-card format and import/export pipeline, compatible with Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.
- Users
- Indie developers and small teams heavily using AI coding assistants, switching between Mac, Linux, and remote servers.
- MVP
- Parse common AI assistant logs/memory files into tagged rule cards; export cards to JSON/YAML and import into editor rule directories; provide CLI search and diff; minimal web preview of rule-card changes; semi-automatic extraction from pasted text.
- Revenue
- Open-source core + paid team sync/audit service ($8/user/month) or one-time desktop license.
- Why now
- AI coding assistants are exploding, but context management is still fragmented; big players won't build cross-assistant rule portability, so an indie can win with a narrow wedge and developer community distribution.
